"Unspoken"

"Unspoken"

Verse:
There is a fog in the air around us-
A cold veil of uncertainty.
But there’s lightning in the clouds above us-
Flashing sparks of electricity.


On the wind is the pulse of potential,
Calling for the silent release
Of a secret held in the shadows,
While the sparks from above increase.


Verse:
There’s a mood that is charged with tension
And it threatens the mystery.
There’s a need to meet in the silence-
To dine from the Devil’s dark tree.


But there is a mist that keeps us separate,
Though the heavens erupt in flames.
With a subtle glance in dancing lights
Your eyes silently call my name.


Chorus:
While unspoken are the words
That can’t escape your lips.
Actions play the silence
Like musician’s fingertips.


And unuttered are the truths
That you bury deep inside.
Unfinished is this dance
That just might change the tides.


Though want and need grow stronger
Inhibition’s bars aren’t broken.
Chances fade like falling stars
And words are left unspoken.


Verse:
In this game we play in the silence
I anticipate your next move.
Into the sky I send a signal
Though I fear you that you won’t approve.


And as the lightning fades above us
I curse all the moments stolen.
How I long to hold you in this storm
And to hear the words unspoken.
